I'm conflicted about the amendment for IL's constitution. I know it's for state worker's rights to unionize, but they already have those on a federal level. So what's it really doing for anyone? Those rights may not stay at the federal level, though.

I literally can't even begin to think about that. This would be Snyder on steroids. I really hope people who don't love her understand the stakes but it doesn't sound like they do

Those rights may not stay at the federal level, though. I donβt think we should assume any federally protected rights will stay in place at this point. I know Iβm glad to have been living in a progressive state these last few years.

Volunteers are getting a lot of, "I'll vote for Democrats but I won't vote for Gretchen " I may seriously vomit if she loses. Please tell me they're calling registered republicans and not democrats. If it's the latter, it 100% does not compute.

I agree with Bluey but I think Puppy Dog Pals and Muppet Babies make me want to enact violence on others based on how obnoxious the theme songs and voice actors are. lol. Oh man I love Puppy Dog Pals almost as much as my kid. The jokes they sneak in there for the adults... And Renee Elise Goldsberry does the Muppet Babies theme! These are my Monday UOs lol I also find Puppy Dog Pals cute. The song is stuck in my head a lot. In the grand scheme of kid stuff it could be a lot worse π€£

This thread gives me a *little* hope for Michigan. I know the Q contingent is loud and obnoxious, but I have to believe this state is not majority composed of the cult-adled.

If it's the latter, it 100% does not compute. Depends on the campaign Eta: bit no, at this point in the game we are only calling people who have indicated support for dems

I promise I will eventually shut up but if you have nervous energy, there are numerous ways to help turn out voters tomorrow and I am happy to help anyone find a shift that works for them!

Im feeling a bit adrift with not sure how to follow along without Twitter. I mean, some people will be posting, but itβs basically a ghost ship over there.

Tomorrow I'll be driving 2 people in my family to drop off their mail in ballots cause they missed the time to fill out and mail in their ballots due to 3 er trips and hospital stay and surgery. That's all I can do this year. Note I can't just drop off their ballots cause then I'd be a mule

My twitter feed is going just as fast if not faster during the implosion and midterm news is right along with it. All the big journos, strategists, and analysts are still there.

They'll all have coverage, analysis, and/or excellent jokes

Next Up in the Night Sky: A Total Lunar Eclipse nyti.ms/3WJal4TI was talking with my girls this evening about the Blood Moon and they gasped and said "but that's when all the bad guys come out in Zelda!" And now I feel less ok about it.
